December 07, 2018

With a stunning mountain scenery backdrop on the eastern shores of Great Salt Lake, Syracuse, Utah offers peace and tranquility as well as being around 30 miles north of Salt Lake City. So this small city can offer you both convenience and comfort. Not to mention that it’s also one of the safest places to live in the whole of Utah, so it’s the perfect place to call home, whether you’re wanting to raise a family or simply enjoy the serenity of nature on your doorstep.

Antelope Island

Covering 42 square miles, Antelope Island is the perfect place to get away from it all and get back to nature. Antelope Island State Park offers plenty of opportunities to explore the land and watch wildlife. The park is also an International Dark Sky Park, which means you get a phenomenal view of the night sky, with millions of stars to be seen, as well as several planets. It can be a fantastic spot for photographers looking to capture the magic of the night sky. There are also events from time to time that can help you learn about astronomy from experts within the park. Plus, you can camp there overnight to really make the most of it.

As well as the stargazing opportunities, there are also 45 miles of hiking, biking and equestrian trails, allowing you to explore the island in an environmentally friendly way. You can also rent (in summer months) or bring your own kayak or paddle board to explore Great Salt Lake and the area around the island. There’s a marina as soon as you hit the island off of the Antelope Island causeway.

Families

There are several highly rated public schools in Syracuse, making it an ideal place to raise your family. There are also may community events held throughout the year to encourage people to come together and get involved. Another thing you’re not short of in Syracuse is community parks where you and your family can enjoy some quality time together, whether it’s taking a walk along the trails, fishing in the pond in Jensen Nature Park, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

As well as parks and community activities, Syracuse has a number of eateries and convenience stores, so you don’t need to travel far for your groceries and essentials.

Gateway

Gateway is a Perry Homes development in Syracuse that can be the perfect location for your new family home. Within easy reach of the amenities in Syracuse and the tranquility of the great outdoors, Gateway is the ideal spot to raise your family. Whether you commute to Salt Lake City or you love the idea of spending your weekends on the lake or hiking on Antelope Island, Gateway is perfectly suited for both. The community has a peaceful, safe and friendly feel and is ideally located for access to schools, shopping, golfing, outdoor pursuits and relaxation. With spacious homes and lots, Gateway could provide you and your family with a comfortable place to call home.
